Would you eat a ready meal from the fridge rather than cook by yourself? Have you been doing Internet shopping rather than going to the stores? What can't you be bothered to do?

       A study into how lazy British people are has found more than half of the adults are so idle (懒散的) that they'd catch the lift rather than climb two flights of stairs.

       Just over 2000 people were quizzed by independent researchers at Nuffield Health, Britain's largest health center. The results were extremely surprising.

       About one in six people questioned said if their remote control was broken, they would continue watching the same channel rather than get up.

       More than one third of those questioned said they would not run to catch a bus. Worryingly, of the 654 respondents with children, 64% said they were often too tired to play with them.

       This led the report to conclude that it's no wonder that one in six children in the UK are classified as obese (very fat) before they start school.

       Dr Sarah Dauncey, medical director of Nuffield Health, said, “People need to get fitter, not just for their own sake, but for the sake of their families, friends and evidently their pets too.”

       “If we don't start to take control of this problem, a whole generation will become too unfit to perform even the most fundamental tasks.”

       And Scotland's largest city, Glasgow, was shamed as the most idle city in the UK, with 75% questioned admitting they do not get enough exercise, followed closely by Birmingham and Southampton, both with 67%.

       The results bring serious challenges for the National Health Service, where obesity-related illnesses such as heart disease and cancer have been on a steady increase for the past 40 years and are costing billions of pounds every year.

How many people questioned don't play with their children?

       A.1280.                           B.More than 333.

       C.654.                            D.About 420.

The study leads us to believe that      .

       A.the pets in the UK will be in trouble if their owners keep their way of life

       B.Glasgow people feel ashamed because they don't get enough exercise

       C.British people are the laziest around the world

       D.five sixths of the British children are healthy

How does the author convince the readers?

       A.By presenting the results of a study.       B.By providing answers to questions.

       C.By interviewing some experts.                     D.By telling a story.

What is the passage mainly about?

       A.A study of British people's laziness.       B. A study of British people's lifestyles.

       C.The health service in the UK.                D.The obesity problem in the UK.

The Friday after the American holiday of Thanksgiving is called Black Friday. It’s said that it’s the day that store ledgers(分类账)move into the black and companies become profitable. On that day, retailers slash(砍) prices to get consumers to buy.  It is also a time when many Americans start their Christmas shopping. VOA’s Elizabeth Lee tells us how the economy may affect consumers on that bargain day.

 This day should be a shopper’s dream. “It’s just the deals, the sales and everything you can get for a lesser price,” said Sandy Thomas, a shopper. But it’s a nightmare for others. “I think it’s crazy. I’ve done all of my shopping throughout the week so I don’t have to go out on Friday,” she said. It’s called Black Friday, the start of the traditional Christmas shopping season in the United States. Every year it’s the day after the Thanksgiving holiday. Stores open before sunrise and there are deep discounts everywhere you look.

Last year a crowd of bargain-hunters killed a Wal-mart worker in a New York suburb. This year, many stores are increasing security while they slash prices. “This is a huge time for the retail stores,” said Fred Joutz from George Washington University. “This is when they begin making their profits for the year.”

Economics professor Fred Joutz says how Americans spend the weekend after Thanksgiving is a good indication of how consumers feel about the future.

With the unemployment rate above 10 percent, Joutz says Americans are saving more and spending less. Some retailers are attracting consumers by opening on Thanksgiving Day, when shops are traditionally closed.  Other stores open their doors anywhere from midnight to four in the morning.

And shoppers will be lining up in front of the doors in order to be one of the first ones to walk through and get a big discount. Electronics like flat screen TVs are usually the first items to go. Sandy Thomas says it’s an annual family tradition and well worth it. “I just save maybe half of what I would have spent on a regular, you know, shopping trip,” she said.

Economists say U.S. consumers will spend money this Black Friday, but they will spend it more carefully.

1.By saying “This day should be a shopper’s dream”, the writer means ________ .

A.shoppers have longed for this day for a long time

B.the shops will be very crowded on that day

C.the shops will keep open until the daybreak of next day

D.shoppers can buy many items at low prices on that day

2.Why are many stores increasing security according to the passage?

A.Because there are too many people saving more and spending less.

B.Because it’s a time when they begin making their profits for the year.

C.Because last year a crowd of bargain-hunters caused an accident.

D.Because many stores open their doors from midnight to four a.m.

3.From the passage we know that_________.

A. Christmas shopping is traditional time and this year it is no exception.

B. Electronics like flat screen TVs are usually least discounted.

C. The economy only affects consumers on that bargain day.

D. Thanksgiving is a good indication of how consumers feel about the future.

4.We can find this passage in_________.

I decide to bite my tongue instead of biting his and stop myself from reminding the other dinner guests that it’s also true what they say about lawyers-that they make money from the misfortune of others.

The second shop , though slightly more polite , was just the same , and the third, and the fourth—so I decided that my approach must be wrong .

I went into the fifth shop with a plan in my mind .I placed the chair on the floor and said to the shopkeeper , “ Would you like to buy a chair ?” He looked it over carefully and said, “Yes , not a bad chair .How much do you want for it , sir ?” “Twenty pounds ,” I said .“OK ,” he said , “I’ll give you twenty pounds .” “It’s got a slightly broken leg ,”I said .“Yes I saw that , it’s nothing .”

Everything was going according to plan and I was getting excited .“What will you do with it ?” I asked .“Oh , it will be easy to sell once the repair is done .” “I’ll buy it ,” I said .“ What do you mean ? You’ve just sold it to me ,” he said . “Yes , I know but I’ve changed my mind .I’m sorry , I’ll give you twenty-seven pounds for it .” “You must be crazy ,” he said.Then suddenly the penny dropped .“ I know what you want .You want me to repair your chair.” “ You’re right ,” I said .“ And what would you have done if I had walked in and said , ‘ Would you mend this chair for me’ ?” “I wouldn’t have agreed to do it ,” he said .“We don’t do repairs , not enough money in it and too much trouble .But I’ll mend this for you , shall we say for a five?” He was a very nice man and was greatly amused (感到有趣) by the whole thing .

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有多余选项。

Have you ever seen any students whose trousers hang so low you can see their underwear? What do you think of that? Fashionable? Some of today’s teenagers are big fans of such a look. 51. __________

The headmaster of a school in central Italy has asked students to stop wearing low-rise jeans that expose underwear and parts of the body. His request came after a class trip. One day, he saw one boy’s baggy trousers slide to his feet. 52. ____________    

But in Italy, a nation that takes fashion very seriously, the suggestion caused a debate among parents, teachers and students. The issue is whether the headmaster's request will limit students' freedom— or whether dress in Italian schools is too casual.

53. _________ “We do not want to kick fashion out,” the headmaster explained, “but extremes (极端) of fashion like this are not right in school.” Many other schools have now requested that their students also stop wearing such trousers.

54._________ Ludovica Gaudio, 14, wore extremely low trousers exposing orange underwear in class. It was cold, so she wore a matching orange scarf. 55._______________ “I don't really feel comfortable in those sort of jeans,” said Sarah Lattanzi, “in winter, when dressed like that, it's quite cold and I am afraid my stomach will ache.”

A.But recently this trend has been at the center of an argument in Italian middle schools.

B.A parents’ group praised the move in favor of good taste, while others advised schools to stop worrying about fashion and fix up old school buildings.

C.He pointed out that this way of dressing is not suitable for school.

D.Most students have simply ignored the request.

E. Another 14-year-old said she would probably respect the request, simply for practical reasons.

F. Let us see that Italian students react differently to schools’ requests.

G. Schools should pay attention to things more important than students’ clothes.
